Host Spotlight: Jack's Covered Lighted Cage in North Branch, MI

Michigan weather doesn't always cooperate with a hitter's schedule, which is exactly why Jack's covered cage in North Branch is such a find — a private, lighted space where you can get your reps in no matter what's happening outside.
The cage
Jack's setup is a covered cage built for year-round practice, so rain or cold doesn't cost you a session. It's equipped with a pitching machine, an L-screen, a batting tee, a soft-toss station, baseballs, and LED lighting for evening work, plus a sound system to keep the energy up and a seating area for whoever's tagging along. It's an extremely private space with room for up to four, and parking is easy on a U-shaped private drive out by the barn. At $45/hour, it's a comfortable, weatherproof spot for individual hitters to lock in.
The host
Jack opened up his private cage to hitters in the North Branch area — the kind of local host who makes quality practice available without the drive to a big facility. A great cage shouldn't sit empty when someone nearby wants to get their reps in, and Jack's makes it simple.
